I just bought a new 2013 Kawasaki Teryx 4.

After spending some time on their forum, I have discovered that a lot of these guys have had a problem with sticks puncturing the wheelwell, which is also the floor directly in front of your feet. Nobody has come up with a good fix, and I was wondering if it could be reinforced with one of the above mentioned materials, and then impregnated with resin to form a cover??

I am familiar with fiberglass, but I wondered if Kevlar or CF would be more puncture resistant without costing a million bux?

Where is a good place to buy Kevlar or CF mat??

Any advice appreciated!

You can always buy raw sheets of carbon fiber off eBay.
